A Sorrowful Joy: a Spiritual Journey of an African-american Man in Late Twentieth-century America Reprint edition
Albert J. Raboteau
In A Sorrowful Joy, Albert Raboteau tells the remarkable story of his own spiritual journey--a journey marked by sorrow and joy, by conversion and reconciliation. He tells of the murder of his father before he was born, being raised in a devout Roman Catholic African-American family, his education, marriage and career crises, and rebuilding his life following a conversion to Orthodox Christianity. Now a professor at Princeton, Raboteau has written a particularly American spiritual autobiography with extraordinary power, lyricism and insight that will not fail to touch anyone who picks it up. This book will appeal especially to African-American readers, members of the Orthodox faith, spiritual seekers, and lovers of biography and personal stories.
